Dear Santa,

My big brother

He’s all grown up

Off to school he goes

Leaving me home

If only I could come

I could learn too

He could teach me

All there is to know

But I can’t

He says

There are no

Small kids there

It is all

Tall kids

We spent the summer days

Together

And now he

Has to go

Leaving me all alone

And the tickle monster

Is never

Ever

Ever

Around anymore

All I want

Is to hear his laugh

As he chases me around

And I pretend to be scared

All I want

Is to feel his tickle

As we both fall to the ground

Laughing like maniacs

All I want

Is to glue myself

To his leg

So whenever he leaves the house

I would have to come!

All I want

Is to become a pencil

In his ginormous backpack

So he would

Need me too

All I want

Is to snatch his homework

And his essays

Which he spends hours on

Every night

And turn into a dog

And chomp it all up

All I want

Is for him to skip basketball

Just for one day

And come home fresh

And ready to play with me

But Mommy said

That this year

Is his big year

And his last year

So he needs to focus

And he can’t play

So I can’t

Cry every day

When he exits through the door

So I can’t

Throw a tantrum

When he says no

So I can’t

“Bother” him

When he and his friends

Are studying for

Big boy tests

That have

Big boy math problems

And I can’t

Act like a baby

And bang on his door

When he locks it

And I can’t

Hide his backpack

When he has to leave

And I can’t

Steal his basketball

And make him

Late to practice

Because he

Is too busy

To play games now

But Santa,

There is no school now

And no practice

But now there is a girl

In his room every day

So now he still

Doesn’t play

Even though

I’ve waited so

Patiently!

I just want

Him to turn into

The silly

Crazy

Fun

Tickle monster

He used to be

And tell me

That he’s coming to get me

That’s all I want

For Christmas

I want

No toys

No games

No candy

Just my brother

But I can’t have him

Because Mommy says

That he needs space

Because this is a

Very

Very

Very

Hard year for him

And I know that

But I don’t want

Anything else

For Christmas

So please Santa

Bring him back?

Mommy says I have to go now

From,

Eddie

P.S. I hope you like my cookies!

Heyyy guys! Hope you like this! This kind of is related to the song All I Want For Christmas Is You! I realized that halfway into writing this lol. But I have a little brother who also hates it when I have to stay up for hours doing homework and can’t play Roblox with him lol. He loves Roblox, I only half like it haha. But yeah! I wanted to kind of dive into the little sibling perspective since my sister and I are the older ones, and I do forget to look at things from his perspective sometimes which causes problems for sure😭😭

I also LOVE little kids😭💖 they’re the best!!!! Annoying too but mostly just insanely adorable🫡♥️
